Care For Your Hands With Weight Lifting Gloves

Don't skimp on the reps because your hands are tired or sore. Make sure your muscles get all they can handle. A good pair of workout gloves will provide padding and reduce friction between your hand and the metal bar. Choose between full fingered pairs which provide maximum protection, and half-finger designs, which allow for extra ventilation to keep your hands cool.

Weight lifting straps are another good alternative to gloves and add grip strength while reducing friction and fatigue. Straps loop around your wrist and wrap around the bar. This gives you extra padding, provides balance, distributes the load somewhat differently and allows you to focus your strength on the lift, and not the grip.
